After achieving incredible things with its subcutaneous glucose monitoring patch, health tech startup Ultrahuman is looking to improve our way of life with a wearable device that literally fits around your finger.
The company rose to fame with the M1, a simple patch worn on the arm that constantly monitored blood glucose (CGM) levels. This small patch, which worked in a similar way to the glucose test kits used by diabetic patients, was able to provide constant real-time information on their glucose levels. You could literally see them go up after eating a donut and go down after a moderate workout. The M1 was simply a springboard for the company, which has much higher aspirations in the health technology space. The Ultrahuman Ring is capable of tracking your metabolism and health by relying on a bunch of sensors that detect movement, temperature, and heart rate.

Movement Index – Movement Index has been formulated to help you understand your total energy expenditure. The score is based on metabolic equivalent (MET) and depends on how much you move throughout the day rather than just your training for a specific duration during the day.
Sleep Index: The Sleep Index is formulated to help you understand the different stages of sleep, such as deep sleep, REM sleep, light sleep, and awake.
Recovery Score – Get an understanding of the current state of your body with the Recovery Score; this acts as an index for your body. It is based on a combination of biometric data such as HRV, heart rate and body temperature throughout the day to help you better understand various body signals.
The Ultrahuman Ring is quite a sleek looking device that fits on your finger, with a cutting edge and minimalist design. Designed to look less like a wearable device and more like a piece of jewelry, the ring comes with a tungsten carbide-coated titanium outer shell that features a beautiful metallic finish, beneath which are the ring’s electronic components, embedded in a hypoallergenic resin. This makes the Ring durable, comfortable, and waterproof to 7 feet. The tungsten carbide coating on the outside is 5 times harder than tool steel (the kind used in shop equipment), making your ring virtually impervious to scratches and dents.
Heart rate tracking, sleep tracking and movement tracking.
Beneath its tiny, fruit ring-sized exterior lies some impressive technology. The Ring comes with a 6-axis motion sensor, a non-contact temperature sensor, a PPG sensor that detects heat rate, a Bluetooth Low Energy 5 module, and a battery that gives the Ring almost a week of use on a single charge. full charge (although you may want to charge it during the day so you can track sleep at night).
The Ring sends data to its companion smartphone app (available for both Android and iOS), which then analyzes the numbers and presents you with insights on how to better plan your life for better health, sleep and recovery. The magic lies in the fact that you can see your metabolism statistics in real time, being able to compare them with statistics from the past. This allows you to understand your body’s nutritional requirements, sleep needs, and exercise limits, giving you much more insightful control over your health.
